Cell Phone

             According to Ellen Goodman in the article, “Don’t Shear Your Life with Me,” the cell phone has made the live easier than before by keeping people and businesses in touch. However, there is an issue using it, which most people have sheared the person who does the call in public his or her live by hearing and understanding what is the caller talks about. In fact, the one who calls looks like living with him or her self. During the call, people who stand or stay around the caller often feel that they have disappeared.

            In general, the author needs that to shows us how the cell phone has made the people share their lives with others. Actually, I agree with the author that it might not be dangerous to talk to someone while doing something around people, but the listeners will think that they have disappeared, for the caller ignores them during the call. In addition, it is interesting to know that people in the past who needed to call had to enter the phone booth, and they were in private place such as when Superman changed his clothes. However, today, cell phone makes the caller as a naked during the calling, and I agree with that.

Avidness Disadvantages

Avidness Disadvantages

            “I have decided that the price of the smell of food shall be sound of money.” These words were said by I. G. Edmonds in his story Ooka and the Stolen Smellwhich talks about a poor student who lives over a tempura shop. Its owner is an avid man who goes to the court to complain of the poor student because he smells the fries of the fish. This rightly indicates the avidness disadvantages.

            First, Edmonds says, “Of course everyone laugh at him. For how could anyone steal a smell?” When the shopkeeper goes to Ooka to tell him about the student who steals the fish’s smell, and he should pay for the smell. Indeed, his greed him lose the mind and do a stupid act to earn the money even though he knows that people will laugh at him.

            Another thing is that the shopkeeper loses some money. For example, if someone gambles, and he wins at the first or the second times, and he tries to push his luck, he may lose all of his money at the third time. Thus, we see the shopkeeper be a close to call, and he is nigh to pay to the poor student when he hears the sound of the money.

            In the story, the author needs that to show us we should be a kind people. Also, there are many things we cannot sell even though we make it.

The Town Where No One Got Off

“The Town Where No One Got Off”

            Ray Bradbury In “The Town Where No One Got Off,” claims that story while traveling by train, there was a salesman needed to get off the train and settle in a small town .when the salesman got off the train, he saw an old man sitting on the station-platform. He has been waiting him since twenty years. However, the salesman didn’t care about him, and he kept walking to a small bar. The old man fallows him there, and he they talked to each other. While they were talking, the old man was holding the salesman’s elbow by the left hand, and the other hand was in his pocket. Then, he said “if I kill you and get you into the river, there is no body will know anything.” The salesman was afraid and he put his hand into his pocket and said “me too, I have a really bad day, and I just came here to kill someone and throw him into the river.” After that, the old man felt a little scared, and everyone went to other way.

            Summing up, the author needs to give a massage which said that there are many people in the world have troubles in their life, so we should not bother people. In general, I agree with the author that we have to take care when we need to contact the people. However, there are some missing in this story such as why the old man was sitting in the station about twenty years? Also, what will happen to the salesman after he has left the old man? Indeed, it was an interesting story in general, so I would recommend it for people how like an ambiguous reading.
